Handcrafted Natural Wood Bendir/Daf (Size: 42cm, 16.5in)

Spirit Circle: The Heartbeat of Nature The Goldesi Spirit Circle marks a return to the roots of rhythm. Unlike modern industrial instruments, this Handcrafted Frame Drum (Daf) is an ode to the organic world. It is built for the musician, the storyteller, and the meditator who seeks a connection with the primal pulse of music. Crafted from a single band of steam-bent natural wood, the frame creates a perfect circle that is lightweight yet incredibly resonant. Stretched across this frame is a high-quality synthetic or natural skin (depending on the variant), tuned to produce a deep, warm, and sustaining bass note that vibrates against the player's chest. Whether used for traditional folk music, shamanic drumming circles, or acoustic accompaniment, the Spirit Circle offers a sound that is not just heard, but felt. It is rhythm in its purest, most unadulterated form.

Performance and Design:

• Organic Acoustic Warmth: The wood shell softens the sound, eliminating harsh metallic frequencies and delivering a mellow, earthy tone that blends beautifully with vocals and acoustic guitars.

• Featherlight Handling: Designed to be held in one hand for extended periods, its lightweight wooden construction prevents arm fatigue, allowing for long trance-like playing sessions.

• Handcrafted Heritage: Each drum creates its own unique visual story with the natural grain of the wood visible through the finish, ensuring no two Spirit Circles are exactly alike.

• Versatile Expression: The wide playing surface allows for a variety of tones—from deep "Doums" in the center to crisp "Taks" at the rim, and subtle finger rolls in between.

• Cultural Authenticity: Modeled after the traditional Middle Eastern "Def" or "Bendir," it carries the acoustic DNA of centuries of musical tradition.
